The most apt analogy for Obama would be the 19th century purveyor of the $1-a-bottle cure-all sold from the back of a wagon. In another life, you bought a bottle out of desperation to save your ailing child, and the poison ‘elixir’ killed her. Obama has always been part of the problem. He will not be any part of the solution. Government here derives its powers from the consent of the governed, and we have withdrawn our consent.

I know of people who find this difficult to believe.

Sadly, most self-identified “African-Americans” still back this Kenyan usurper. Apparently, unemployment rates of 30% to upwards of 50% in their “communities” is No Big Deal!

Yes sadly yes. I am constantly amazed at stupidity of America as to what is happening to the majority while they blindly swallow hook line and sinker of whatever BS the media’s political pundits feed them.

I am reminded of the “riding ahead of the revolt” of King Richard II, and the way he ended the Peasant’s Revolt of 1381. Richard, after the Mayor of London killed the leader of the Revolt, Wat Taylor, rode into the crowd and famously said, “You shall have no captain but me.” (in a recent show on Peasants by the BBC, it was related as “I’ll be your captain!”).

He then promised the crowd that the dead leader was knighted and that the demand would be met. The crowd then dispersed, and the leaders who later met him and his group were summarily executed.

Mark Twain said “History does not repeat itself, but it does rhyme.” Does anyone else, I wonder, notice this peculiar bit of rhythm?

The even more important question is anyone dumb enough to believe there is an alternative??
The puppet show of so-called “Democrats vs. Republicans”, fully supported by the propaganda machines maintains this stupidity. Racial, ethnic or cultural slurs, don’t get us anywhere. Be aware of any discomfort you may have with those “different” from you and struggle to overcome it. You will quickly realize, these differences pale in comparison to the more important things. 99% of the world is in the same boat and the sooner we all get on the same side, the sooner we have a chance to avoid the slavery being imposed.

The puppet show of so-called “Democrats vs. Republicans”, fully supported by the propaganda machines maintains this stupidity. Racial, ethnic or cultural slurs, don’t get us anywhere.

Worse yet, the ethnic & religious slurs are being tied to prevent many from looking at real solutions as such. Ron Paul types were, in some cases, kept out of these events but you’ll notice that End the Fed signs do show up on the media, such as on Glenn Beck’s “The Blaze”, they are often hastily drawn with anti-semitic references. Another showed up on a sound bite on Michael Savage last night. In other words, an link is being made to the general audience that if you support ending the Federal Reserve or cutting down the TBTF banks, you hate Jews.

He also called those that were arrested attempting to close accounts at Citibank “Trespassers” and called the Santa Cruz denial part of a “hot new trend” in the TBTF banks that apparently he approves of.

So apparently we’re supposed to support being held hostage by TBTF banks.
